Fossil teeth of Mosasaurus sp. In very good condition. The fossil includes a label with the name, period and origin and is attached to a cardboard box. 4 cm square.
Its name "Meuse River Reptile" refers to the fact that the first specimen was found near the Meuse River.
They were huge marine reptiles that reached 15 meters in length and about 20 tons in weight. They lived in deep seas, hunting near the ocean's surface, where they fed on fish, turtles, ammonites, and possibly smaller mosasaurs, making them one of the most dangerous predators to ever inhabit the planet.
Deposits: United States, Holland, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Turkey and Bulgaria.
*The price is per unit (a single cardboard box of the four shown in the photo)
Since the samples are natural, you will receive a piece similar to the one in the photograph. The fossils come in cardboard boxes and are glued to a porex base with hot silicone; these can be removed using ethyl alcohol without damaging the fossil. The size is approximate.
